About your appliance 15

IMPORTANT: Adjust laundry aid amounts for heavily/lightly soiled loads, or hard/soft water. NEVER EXCEED the recommended amounts of detergent or fabric softener. Doing so could impair wash results and cause damage to the internal parts of your machine!

IMPORTANT: NEVER USE FABRIC SOFTENER SHEETS!

WARNING! Always dilute bleach before using. Never overfill bleach dispenser. Excess bleach could damage clothes.

IMPORTANT: The suds level should never rise more than half way up to the porthole. Too much foam will rise through the dispenser and make a mess on your floor

IMPORTANT: Using fabric softener causes items to release from the drum immediately after high-speed spin, helping clothes to dry faster while minimizing wrinkling and softening fabrics. NOTE: Splendide recommends using 1 to 2 tbsp. of a bio-friendly, or similar brand per wash load. These softeners tend to appear light in color and dissolve more quickly in less water, minimizing build-up within your machine.

Laundry Aid Type / Amounts

Your Splendide requires smaller amounts of laundryaids to get fabrics clean. Adding too muchdetergent won’t necessarily make for a moreefficient wash, and may in fact cause build up onyour clothes and inside your appliance and evenpollute the environment. Recommended laundry

aid amounts per wash load:

• Prewash detergent (Optional):1 to 2 TBSP Powder(or 1 TBSP Liquid)

• Detergent:1 to 2 TBSP Powder(or 1 TBSP Liquid)

• Fabric softener:1to 2 TBSP (Liquid ONLY)

• Bleach (Optional):DO NOT exceed the MAX fill line

About the Dispenser Drawer

Laundry products are diluted and dispensedautomatically at the proper time during the washcycle. The dispenser drawer has threecompartments (plus one removable bin) for addinglaundry products to the wash load. Thesecompartments are:

1 PreWash Detergent (With Bleach Binremoved)

2 Detergent for the Wash Cycle (Powderor Liquid)

3 Fabric Softener (Liquid)

4 Bleach (With Bleach Bin in place)

While not required, Splen-dide recommends the use of a High Efficiency (HE) detergent. HE detergents are quick dissolving and low sudsing and will deliver optimum results in your front-loading machine.

Combine large and small items in one full load. When washing single items such as asweater, towel or jeans, add 1 or 2 similaritems to help balance the load. Single, heavyitems such as a bathrobe can be washedseparately.

Do not wash rugs that could come apart and clog your machine.

For more delicate garments protect under-wear, tights, stockings and other small or delicate items by placing them in a mesh laundry pouch while washing and drying.

When using the ‘Wool’ cycle, for bestresults, use a detergent that is for wool garments, taking care not to wash more than2.2 lbs.

For best results,• DON’T OVERLOAD THE DRUM. Keep up with

laundry by doing smaller loads every day ortwo.

• DON’T EXCEED RECOMMENDED DETERGENTOR FABRIC SOFTENER AMOUNTS.

• When going from ‘was-to-dry’ automatically,Always use a fabric softener (Or a Detergentwith built-in softeners) so clothes release fromthe drum after the high speed spin.

• ONLY use ‘Cotton Heavy Duty’ for heavycottons (towels, jeans, etc.)

• For items that may wrinkle, use ‘Low Spin’ inwash and ‘Synthetics Dry’

• To further prevent wrinkles, set a ‘washONLY’ cycle with ‘LOW SPIN’ pressed. After thewash cycle ends, remove large items (pants,sheets, etc.) from the drum and shake themout. Loosely fold them and place them back inthe drum. Then set a ‘Synthetics Dry’ cycle with‘LOW HEAT’ pressed.

• For mixed DRY CYCLE loads, remove itemsthat may wrinkle while still damp (dress shirts,etc.) Hand press and hang them. Then,continue drying the rest (underwear, towels,etc.)

• NEVER OVER DRY LAUNDRY. Over drying is amajor cause of wrinkling. A certain amount ofhumidity is what makes fabrics soft and fluffy.

WARNING! During the drying phase, the door tends to get quite hot.

Do not use the appliance to dry clothes that have been washed with flammable or chemical solvents (e.g. trichlorethylene).

This appliance can only be used to dry clothes that have been pre-washed in water.

Do not use the appliance to dry foam rubber or similar materials

Combo laundry FAQ’sIs using a combination washer-dryer muchdifferent than what I’m use to?Yes, in some ways. You are washing anddrying in the same drum and load sizes aresmaller. Wash cycles are similar, but becausecombination washer-dryers are compact andoperate using 115V (vs. 230V), dry times arelonger. Instead of washing several, bulky loadsof laundry in one day, you’ll learn to adjustyour laundry habits to launder smaller, more convenient loads every day or two.

Why do I need to load my drum less full for ‘dry’ and ‘wash-to-dry’ cycles?Your machine can wash larger loads than it can dry. Remember, separate washers anddryers have drums of different sizes (the dryer drum is usually 2 times bigger), and your machine washes and dries in the same drum. When you program your machine to ‘dry’ or ‘wash-to-dry’ you must load the drum no more than 1/2 to 3/4 full. (NOTE: Automatic wash-to-dry not available when Silk is selected)

What factors affect drying times?Drying times depend largely on the type of material (some fibers absorb more water thanothers), and the dampness of the articles when drying is started (1200 RPM spin vs. 800- 600 RPM spin), and on the amount of laundry thatis being dried. Jeans, towels and similar(rather thick) articles will take longer to dry.

Caring for your appliancedoor and drumWhen not in use, leave the appliance door ajarto prevent unpleasant odors from forming.

Checking the water inlethosesCheck the water inlet hoses at least once a year.Clean the filters and the water valves. If you seeany cracks, bulges or wear, replace hosesimmediately; During the wash cycles, waterpressure is very strong and a cracked hose couldeasily split open.

IMPORTANT: Replace the inlet hoses at least every five years of use to reduce the risk of hose failure. When replacing the inlet hoses, mark the date of replacementon the label with a permanent marker.

WARNING! Never use inlet hoses that have already been used.

Care and maintenance 21

Cleaning the pumppre-chamberThe washer-dryer is fitted with a self-cleaningpump that does not require regular maintenance.However, if small items (such as coins or buttons)fall into the pre-chamber that protects the pump,you will need to retrieve them.

To access the pre-chamber:1 Using a screwdriver, remove the cover panel on

the lower front of the washer-dryer.

2 Place a small dish or tray below the cover.Unscrew the pre-chamber by rotating it counterclockwise. A little water may trickle out. This isperfectly normal.

3 Clean the interior thoroughly.

4 Screw the pre-chamber back on.

5 Reposition the panel, making sure the tabs arepositioned correctly before you push the panelback onto the appliance.

IMPORTANT: Before cleaning, make surethe wash cycle has ended and unplug the appliance.

No lint filter to cleanYour Splendide removes the lint automatically withthe help of it’s self-cleaning pump, so there’s no lintfilter to clean. However, it is recommended that youoccasionally inspect the outside vent and dryerducting for any lint accumulation (see below).

Checking the dryer ventOccasionally go outside and check the dryer vent for

proper airflow. Assure that the vent and ducting are

lint-free.
